About Me

I'm a Self-shooting Producer Director - an innovative storyteller, as comfortable in the edit suite as in the field. I love mixing genres to give a unique perspective to shows I work on.

In this industry, to stand out from the crowd it's not enough to be good at one job, you need excel at several. That's exactly what Ed does. Not only is he great at researching, setting up shoots and working on location - he also edits, shoots, manages rushes, looks after equipment and even does graphics.

For me he was called on to do some pretty challenging things: dealing with nightmarish bureaucracy, filming in the hottest place on Earth - even designing aliens. He coped with all these challenges with ease.

Highly recommended.
